Pair an iPad in Manager Table mode

Step-by-step tutorial

1. 1
   Open Live · Table devices

   Open the operator-side Table devices sheet

   Confirm the table and queue

   Verify the table lock and connection status

   A paired device shows only its assigned table queue, under a label shortened from the table's own name — a table named Table 3 reads T3. Connected is healthy; Reconnecting means the heartbeat is stale or resuming.

   Score, then submit

   Score the match, then submit once

   Start match opens the scoring surface for a singles, doubles, or mixed match. Score point by point, then Confirm & submit sends one result to the desk. A team tie cannot be scored here and its Start match button says so.
